Brief Summary

Vitamin D insufficiency, defined as serum 25-hydroxyvitamin (OH) D level less than 30 ng/ml, is highly prevalent not only in the general population but also in chronic kidney disease (CKD) population. Many guidelines including the National Kidney Foundation-Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKF-KDOQI) have consistently recommended vitamin D supplementation in patients with pre-dialysis CKD with vitamin D insufficiency with ergocalciferol or cholecalciferol to achieve 25(OH)D level of more than 30 ng/ml using serum levels-based titration regimen. However, this protocol has not been studied in end stage kidney disease patients treated with maintenance dialysis.

Vitamin D supplementation using titration regimen

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive ergocalciferol orally depending on serum 25(OH)D level as described * serum 25(OH)D \< 5 ng/ml --\> receive ergocalciferol 50,000 IU/week for 3 months followed by 50,000 IU monthly for 3 months * serum 25(OH)D 5-15 ng/ml--\> receive ergocalciferol 50,000 IU/week for 1 month followed by 50,000 IU monthly for 5 months * serum 25(OH)D 16-30 ng/ml--\> receive ergocalciferol 50,000 IU monthly for 6 months

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will receive ergocalciferol 20,000 unit orally per week for 6 months.
